What is the company's net income?

($201,200)

Explanation:

Given the following :

Sales made = $2,384,000

Cost of goods sold = $1,441,000

Administrative and selling expenses = $436,600

Depreciation Expense = $491,600

Interest expense = $216,600

Tax rate = 35%

Gross profit : Sales made - cost of goods sold

Gross profit = (2,384,000 - 1,441,000) = $ 943,000

Expenses : (Depreciation Expense + Administrative and selling expense)

Expenses : ( $491,600 + $436,600) = $928,200

Operating income = Gross profit - expenses

Operating income = (943,000 - 928,200) = 14,800

Interest expense = $216,600

Net income = Operating income - interest expense

Net income = $14,800 - $216,600

Net income = - $201,200

Net income = $(201,200)
